The AEM intake is the one that scion let's you add as an add-on. I, however, like to go with Injen. You can go with cold air or short ram... i've heard there are some flooding issues with the cold air, so short ram does the job there - suppose it really just matters where you live. On the other hand, longer barrel means more hp.

As for other mods - I talked to my dealer about mods and the warranty; he told me that as long as I get 'certain' aftermarket mods installed by a professional/shop then my warranty should still be active. Doesnt sound right to me, but I'm pretty much set to forego my warranty for the mods.

So if you want to mod, be prepared to lose that warranty.

AEM has a bypass valve available if you buy a CAI. It would prevent any flooding worries...........
